FNTSY Terms of Use

FNTSY Terms of Use

Access to this site is contingent upon your reading and agreeing to the terms and conditions of use.

Overview:

Welcome to FantasySportsNetwork.com (FNTSY)! We are a subscription service that provides our members with access to video on demand; television and other audio-visual entertainment (“SHOWS”) streamed over the Internet to certain Internet-connected TV’s, computers, mobile and other devices (“FNTSY ready devices”).

These Terms of Use govern your use of our service. As used in these Terms of Use, “FNTSY service,” “our service” or “the service” means the service provided by FNTSY for discovering and watching SHOWS, including all features and functionalities, website, and user interfaces, as well as all content and software associated with our service.

If you are a resident of the Canada or United States (including its possessions and territories), you agree to the Arbitration Agreement and class action waiver described in Section 15 to resolve any disputes with FNTSY (except for matters that may be taken to small claims court).

Please note that these Terms of Use include hyperlinks that may be accessed only through our website, so if you are reviewing these Terms of Use through certain FNTSY ready devices, you may need to visit https://fantasysportsnetwork.com/terms to review these hyperlinked terms.

The FNTSY service is provided by Fantasy Sports Media Group Inc., or one of its affiliated companies. The FNTSY company that is providing the service to you (referred to as “FNTSY” in these Terms of Use) and with whom you are entering into this agreement, depends on the country from which you sign up for the FNTSY service. Check back as the service provider may change from time to time.

Changes to Terms of Use. FNTSY may, from time to time, change these Terms of Use, including the Privacy Policy, EULA and Social Terms. Such revisions shall be effective immediately; provided however, for existing members, such revision shall, unless otherwise stated, be effective 30 days after posting.

These communications may involve sending emails to your email address provided during registration, or posting communications on the FNTSY service, or in the “Your Account” page and will include notices about your account (e.g., payment authorizations, change in password or Payment Method, confirmation e-mails and other transactional information) and are part of your relationship with FNTSY. You agree that any notice, agreements, disclosure or other communications that we send to you electronically will satisfy any legal communication requirements, including that such communications be in writing. You should maintain copies of electronic communications by printing a paper copy or saving an electronic copy.

Membership, Free Trials, Billing and Cancellation

Membership

Ongoing Membership. Your FNTSY membership, which may start with a free trial, will continue month-to-month unless and until you cancel your membership or we terminate it. You must have Internet access and provide us with a current, valid, accepted method of payment (as such may be updated from time to time, “Payment Method”) to use the FNTSY service. We will bill the monthly membership fee to your Payment Method. You must cancel your membership before it renews each month in order to avoid billing of the next month’s membership fees to your Payment Method.

Differing Memberships. We may offer a number of membership plans, including special promotional plans or memberships with differing conditions and limitations. Any materially different terms from those described in these Terms of Use will be disclosed at your sign-up or in other communications made available to you. You can find specific details regarding your membership with FNTSY by visiting our website and clicking on the “Your Account” link. Some promotional memberships are offered by third parties in conjunction with the provision of their own products and services. We are not responsible for the products and services provided by such third parties. We reserve the right to modify, terminate or otherwise amend our offered membership plans.

Free Trials

Your FNTSY membership may start with a free trial. The free trial period of your membership lasts for one month, or as otherwise specified during sign-up. Free trials may not be combined with any other offers. Free trials are for new and certain former members only. FNTSY reserves the right, in its absolute discretion, to determine your free trial eligibility.

We will begin billing your Payment Method for monthly membership fees at the end of the free trial period of your membership unless you cancel prior to the end of the free trial period. To view the specific details of your membership, including monthly membership price and end date of your free trial period, visit our website and click the “View billing details” link on the “Your Account” page. We may authorize your Payment Method through various methods, including authorizing it up to approximately one month of service as soon as you register. In some instances, your available balance or credit limit may be reduced to reflect the authorization during your free trial period.

You will not receive a notice from us that your free trial period has ended or that the paying portion of your membership has begun. CLICK THE “YOUR ACCOUNT” LINK AT THE TOP OF ANY FNTSY WEB PAGE (https://fantasysportsnetwork.com) TO FIND CANCELLATION INSTRUCTIONS. We will continue to bill your Payment Method on a monthly basis for your membership fee until you cancel.

Billing

Recurring Billing. By starting your FNTSY membership, you authorize us to charge you a monthly membership fee at the then current rate, and any other charges you may incur in connection with your use of the FNTSY service to your Payment Method. You acknowledge that the amount billed each month may vary from month to month for reasons that may include differing amounts due to promotional offers and/or changing or adding a plan, and you authorize us to charge your Payment Method for such varying amounts, which may be billed monthly in one or more charges.

Price Changes. We reserve the right to adjust pricing for our service or any components thereof in any manner and at any time as we may determine in our sole and absolute discretion. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in these Terms of Use, any price changes to your service will take effect following email notice to you. Billing Cycle. The membership fee for our service will be billed at the beginning of the paying portion of your membership and each month thereafter unless and until you cancel your membership. We automatically bill your Payment Method each month on the calendar day corresponding to the commencement of your paying membership. Membership fees are fully earned upon payment. We reserve the right to change the timing of our billing, in particular, as indicated below, if your Payment Method has not successfully settled. In the event your paying membership began on a day not contained in a given month, we may bill your Payment Method on a day in the applicable month or such other day as we deem appropriate. For example, if you started your FNTSY membership or became a paying member on January 31st, your next payment date is likely to be February 28th, and your Payment Method would be billed on that date. Your renewal date may change due to changes in your Membership. Visit our website and click on the “View billing details” link on the “Your Account” page to see the commencement date for your next renewal period. We may authorize your Payment Method in anticipation of membership or service-related charges. As used in these Terms of Use, “billing” shall indicate a charge, debit or other payment clearance, as applicable, against your Payment Method. Unless otherwise stated differently, month or monthly refers to your billing cycle.

No Refunds. PAYMENTS ARE NONREFUNDABLE AND THERE ARE NO REFUNDS OR CREDITS FOR PARTIALLY USED PERIODS. Following any cancellation, however, you will continue to have access to the service through the end of your current billing period. At any time, and for any reason, we may provide a refund, discount, or other consideration to some or all of our members (“credits”). The amount and form of such credits, and the decision to provide them, are at our sole and absolute discretion. The provision of credits in one instance does not entitle you to credits in the future for similar instances, nor does it obligate us to provide credits in the future, under any circumstance.

Payment Methods. You may edit your Payment Method information by visiting our website and clicking on the “Your Account” link, available at the top of the pages of the FNTSY website. If a payment is not successfully settled, due to expiration, insufficient funds, or otherwise, and you do not edit your Payment Method information or cancel your account (see, “Cancellation” below), you remain responsible for any uncollected amounts and authorize us to continue billing the Payment Method, as it may be updated. This may result in a change to your payment billing dates. If you signed up for FNTSY using your account with a third party (i.e., iTunes, or similar account) as a Payment Method, and wish to cancel your FNTSY membership at any time, including during your free trial, you will need to do so through such third party, including by visiting your account with the applicable third party and turning off auto-renew, or unsubscribing from, the FNTSY service. You may also find billing information about your FNTSY membership by visiting your account with the applicable third party. For certain Payment Methods, the issuer of your Payment Method may charge you a foreign transaction fee or other charges. Check with your Payment Method service provider for details.

Cancellation. You may cancel your FNTSY membership at any time, and you will continue to have access to the FNTSY service through the end of your monthly billing period. WE DO NOT PROVIDE REFUNDS OR CREDITS FOR ANY PARTIAL-MONTH MEMBERSHIP PERIODS OR UNWATCHED MOVIES OR TV SHOWS. To cancel, go to the “Your Account” page on our website and follow the instructions for cancellation.

Passwords & Account Access

The member who created the FNTSY account and whose Payment Method is charged is referred to here as the Account Owner. The Account Owner has access and control over the FNTSY account. The Account Owner’s control is exercised through use of the Account Owner’s password and therefore to maintain exclusive control, the Account Owner should not reveal the password to anyone. In addition, if the Account Owner wishes to prohibit others from contacting FNTSY Customer Service and potentially altering the Account Owner’s control, the Account Owner should not reveal the Payment Method details (e.g., last four digits of their credit or debit card, or their email address if they use PayPal) associated with their account. You are responsible for updating and maintaining the truth and accuracy of the information you provide to us relating to your account.

In order to provide you with ease of access to your account and to help administer the FNTSY service, FNTSY implements technology that enables us to recognize you as the Account Owner and provide you with direct access to your account without requiring you to retype any password or other user identification when you revisit the FNTSY service, which includes accessing via FNTSY ready devices or website.

BY SHARING THE FNTSY SERVICE PASSWORD OR ALLOWING OTHERS TO ACCESS YOUR ACCOUNT, THE ACCOUNT OWNER AGREES TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ASSURING THAT HOUSEHOLD MEMBERS COMPLY WITH THE TERMS OF USE AND SUCH ACCOUNT OWNER SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ACTIONS OF THE HOUSEHOLD MEMBERS.

You should be mindful of any communication requesting that you submit credit card or other account information. Providing your information in response to these types of communications can result in identity theft. Always access your sensitive account information by going directly to the FNTSY website and not through a hyperlink in an email or any other electronic communication, even if it looks official. FNTSY reserves the right to place any account on hold anytime with or without notification to the member in order to protect itself and its partners from what it believes to be fraudulent activity. FNTSY is not obligated to credit or discount a membership for holds placed on the account by either a representative of FNTSY or by the automated processes of FNTSY.

Arbitration Agreement

If you are a FNTSY member in the United States (including its possessions and territories), you and FNTSY agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating in any way to the FNTSY service, these Terms of Use and this Arbitration Agreement, shall be determined by binding arbitration or in small claims court. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. You agree that, by agreeing to these Terms of Use, the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision, and that you and FNTSY are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of this Agreement and the termination of your FNTSY membership.

If you elect to seek arbitration or file a small claim court action, you must first send to FNTSY, by certified mail, a written Notice of your claim (“Notice”). The Notice to FNTSY must be addressed to: General Counsel, Fantasy Sports Media Group, Inc., 230 – 171 East Liberty Street, Toronto, ON, M6K 3P6 (“Notice Address”). If FNTSY initiates arbitration, it will send a written Notice to the email address used for your membership account. A Notice, whether sent by you or by FNTSY, must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). If FNTSY and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or FNTSY may commence an arbitration proceeding or file a claim in small claims court.

You may download or copy a form Notice and a form to initiate arbitration at www.adr.org. If you are required to pay a filing fee, after FNTSY receives notice at the Notice Address that you have commenced arbitration, FNTSY will promptly reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for greater than US$10,000, in which event you will be responsible for filing fees.

The arbitration will be governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by this Agreement, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and Forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by writing to the Notice Address. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this Agreement. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including issues relating to the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Unless FNTSY and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) of your residence.

If your claim is for US$10,000 or less, we agree that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds US$10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. If the arbitrator issues you an award that is greater than the value of FNTSY’s last written settlement offer made before an arbitrator was selected (or if FNTSY did not make a settlement offer before an arbitrator was selected), then FNTSY will pay you the amount of the award or US$1,000, whichever is greater. Except as expressly set forth herein, the payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules.

YOU AND FNTSY AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and FNTSY agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim.
